desirable gage may be employed inthe manufacture ofthe device and thatdevices of any desired proportion may be formed.

From the foregoing description, taken in connection with theaccompanying drawings, the construction and operation of the inventionwill be readily understood without ,requiring a more extendedexplanation.

Various changes in the'form, proportion 'and the minor details ofconstruction may be resorted to Without departing from the principle orsacrificing any of the advantages of this invention, as claimed.-

Having thus described my invention, what I claim is The herein describedhair curler comprising a spring rod doubled to form an intermediatespring loopl and a pair of arms extending from the terminals of theloop, one of said arms being formed With a loop at its outer end atright angles thereto and open at a point at one side of said arm, theother arm being rela-tively Wide in one dimension and relatively narrowin another dimension, cross sectionallyyof such length, as to enable itto project through the last named loop and with its least ydimensionabout equal to the Width ofsaid opening and with its greater dimensionnormally at right angles to said Opening, so that casual disengagementof the last named arm from the last named loop is prevented and it isrendered necessary to present the least dimension of said arm to theopening of said loop in order to disengage said arm from said loop.

In testimony whereof I alix my signature in presence of two Witnesses.
